If you want to see the real HCMC and not be trapped in the backpacker district, this is the perfect place. Hue was a great host. The apartment is above a coffee shop that her husband runs, so you always have good coffee in the morning. The neighborhood is perfect because it has local places to eat and it is alive at night with, but it is a close walk to the 1st district tourist center. Both Hue and her husband were very helpful and talkative so we felt at home with them. This was the perfect location for us in HCMC, we enjoyed the walk home every night. The banh mi and pho restaurants right out front are great too in case you don't have time to look for food. Highly recommend!

Great!
